Linus Torvalds' popular comment is dissected here (http://warp.povusers.org/OpenLetters/ResponseToTorvalds.html http://warp.povusers.org/OpenLetters/ResponseToTorvalds.html): "C++ is a horrible language. It's made more horrible by the fact that a lot of substandard programmers use it, to the point where it's much much easier to generate total and utter crap with it. Quite frankly, even if the choice of C were to do nothing but keep the C++ programmers out, that in itself would be a huge reason to use C." You know the clip I'd like to see: Linus vs Stroustrup, discussing the pros and cons of C++. The hotheaded hacker against the calm language developer. Who'd win?
